Discussion
The doctor’s impression: “Thrombocytosis, mild without other obvious hematologic difficulty. I would be most suspicious for early iron deficiency related to her prior menometrorrhagia. Would limit initial evaluation to iron studies, review of peripheral smear, and hepatic profile.”

Reactive thrombocytosis is not reportable and is not an alternative name for essential thrombocythemia [9962/3].

Only the following are listed as alternate names for essential thrombocythemia in the Heme DB:

Essential hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Essential thrombocytosis

ET

Hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic thrombocytosis

Primary thrombocythemia

Primary thrombocytosis

Thrombocythemia vera
